Notes on Ambition

Ambition is like mass. The more you have, the stronger your gravitational pull.

And I’m here to argue that you should spend the time to figure out the most ambitious thing you could dream of doing with your one wild and precious life.

When you name your ambition, it seems that the world conspires to help you achieve it, because you become more aware of all the tools at your disposal.

In naming your ambition, name something big, something you can uniquely achieve.

“To believe our own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men, -- that is genius. Speak your latent conviction, and it shall be the universal sense; for the inmost in due time becomes the outmost.”
